Saints DB, that'll end well.We signed Erik Harris, safety that used to play for the Saints.

Wouldn't be so bad if it was afte one good year. Now it's an OTA sessionAre the Raiders back to ruining players after only one good year? Hehehe.
Week 1 preview...
6 Weeks minimum but I wouldn't count on anything from him this season.
Him and Conley missed almost all of TC, right?
Talk about behind the eight ball.
Based on how Reggie has approached this offseason, I would say he is familiar with the 8-ball....either shaking it or snorting it...
Maybe Obi isn't hurt at all and they have secreted him at an off site location to teach him how to play football....
why didn't the take Ward/Calhoun/ ...Maybe Obi isn't hurt at all and they have secreted him at an off site location to teach him how to play football....

I don't know if the issue is motivation... I just haven't seen him demonstrate that he has the physical capability to beat the man across from him with either speed or strength or technique. He just gets swallowed up time after time.I was thinking about Calhoun not even getting a waiver claim from another team and wondering if this will be his wake-up call. It seems he has all the physical tools, but has trouble getting motivated. Maybe the realization that if he doesn't step his game up immediately he's going to be clerking at a 7-11 will be the kick in the ass he needs.
Not saying it's likely, but it is possible.

I posted a couple of pre-draft quotes from scouts and that was kind of the knock on this guy. The fact that not one team even added him to their PS is pretty telling.
He's awful. Focused on him in pre-season games, and dude is just terrible. About the only thing he can do is push the tackle, but has no other moves and no agility to get around the guy in front of him. Lewis was far more active and showed more in every game, so of course, we let him go and keep this stiff.
Ellis' playing playing well would be huge too.This season will rise or fall on MEJ and Vandy. Can they bring pressure and disruption up the middle to give Mack the openings to get to the QB. We have nobody in the secondary or at LB the will be able to hold coverage for any length of time. They'll also need to be stout holding the running games in check as well.
SMH, we were heading in the right direction.
